Schlage Electronics 621RD – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the purpose of the Schlage 621RD duress button?
The 621RD duress button sends a silent alarm signal when pressed under threat. It connects to access control systems to alert security personnel without triggering visible or audible alarms that could escalate dangerous situations.
2) Is this duress button compatible with all Schlage access control systems?
The 621RD works with most Schlage electronic access control panels that accept dry contact inputs. Verify your system specifications and wiring requirements before installation to ensure proper compatibility.
3) How is the 621RD duress button powered?
This button operates as a dry contact switch and draws power from the connected access control panel. No separate power supply is required for the button itself.
4) What type of electrical box does this button require?
The 621RD mounts in a standard single gang electrical box with 1-1/4 inch depth minimum. Use a metal or plastic box rated for low voltage wiring applications.
5) Can the red color be changed or customized?
This model comes in red only as indicated by the RD designation. The red color provides visual identification for emergency personnel while remaining discreet to potential threats.
6) What wire gauge should be used for installation?
Use 18 to 22 AWG stranded wire for connections. Run wire in conduit or plenum-rated cable as required by local electrical codes. Keep wire runs under manufacturer recommended distances.
7) Where should duress buttons be positioned for optimal use?
Install at desk height or other easily accessible locations where users can activate discreetly. Avoid obvious placement near main entry points. Consider multiple buttons in high-risk areas.
8) How is the button activated and what type of contact does it provide?
Press the button to activate a momentary dry contact closure. The contact returns to normal position when released. Configure your access control system for momentary or latching alarm response as needed.
9) Does this button require regular maintenance or testing?
Test monthly by pressing the button and verifying alarm signal reaches the monitoring station. Clean the face plate occasionally with mild soap and water. Check wire connections annually.
10) Are there other Schlage duress button models available?
Schlage offers various duress button configurations including different colors and mounting options. Browse our Schlage products section for additional emergency button solutions.
11) What building codes apply to duress button installation?
Follow local electrical codes for low voltage wiring. Some jurisdictions have specific requirements for emergency signaling devices in commercial buildings. Consult local authorities having jurisdiction before installation.
